Viewers noticed an excruciating moment on This Morning between two guests on today’s episode.

Ashley James, 37, and Camilla Tominey, 46, featured on ITV’s daytime television show with presenters Ben Shephard, 50, and Cat Deeley, 48.

However, the pair appeared to have a heated exchange when discussing Friends actress Jennifer Aniston’s new workout inspired by pilates aimed to help post-menopausal women.

The show featured a clip of Jennifer exercising in a cropped sports top and leggings which quickly triggered a discussion between the This Morning stars, the Express reported.

Ashley said to Camilla: ‘I would like to see you in that outfit.’

Which Camilla replied with: ‘What are you saying Ashley, that I couldn’t get away with wearing that outfit? That black leotard?’

The pair chatted with presenters Ben Shephard, 50, and Cat Deeley, 48 on This Morning

As the stars laughed, Ashley responded: ‘Camilla I know that you love to stoke division but I did not say that.’

Camilla commented back before Ben attempted to make light of the conversation and said: ‘Now you two, stop flirting.’

Viewers noticed the exchange and took to social media to post about it, with one describing it as ‘awkward’.

Someone wrote on X: ‘Well watching that was awkward, Camilla was quite nasty in my opinion, Ashley was embarrassed and couldn’t get a word in, not nice to watch in the morning #ThisMorning.’

While a second chimed in: ‘What’s this beef between these two today on #thismorning first time during news review both guests have clashed so much.’

A third said: ‘These 2 women don’t like each other do they #ThisMorning.’

Another added: ‘Miaww, claws are out #thismorning.’

Someone else posted: ‘I have got my popcorn ready for round 2 between ashley vs camilla,these women will definitely fight this morning,i can’t wait,lets go this morning,this is the best this morning segment ever,two women that genuinely hate each other going for it,lets go folks #ThisMorning.’

Another said: ‘#ThisMorning @CamillaTominey yet again being exceedingly rude & patronising to #ashleyjames.’

One posted: ‘The level of passive aggressiveness between those two is brilliant… FIGHT #ThisMorning.’

It comes after last month, Cat Deeley’s future on the show was confirmed nine months after she made her debut. 

The presenter joined the programme in February last year, alongside Ben Shephard following the departures of Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby.

It has now been reported that Cat has secured a major new deal, keeping her on the show until spring 2026.

Cat has signed a new contract which kicks in March and is said to be in the realm of £600,000 for a 12-month stint.
